It is a large undertaking but I do enjoy being outside and I have missed it. I planted 12 noids today that I received from a FB friend and have 28 more to go. I do have a gopher but I'm hopeful he will eat the hollyhock tubers instead of the iris. He did eat a few hollyhocks this spring so I hope he enjoyed them. The neighbors do have a cat but it only eats my birds and uses the area for a litter box. I'm sorry I didn't take pictures on my phone but I think my sister did before we started planting. I'll post those later. Thank you for all the thumbs up and welcoming me back. I do have pictures of my flowers that bloomed this year, do I post them here if you want to see them or just my database? I have another question I could not seem to find an answer for, do I delete the plants on my database that I no longer have? I plan on putting my new ones on there but it will take a while. Thank you for all your kind words and help!
